Seroquel, Mirtazapine and melatonin. They make you tired, but If you have many thoughts its still hard to sleep on them.

Used to take Clonazepam PRN, but now Clozapine does the trick.

I use Ativan as needed. I usually only take it off I haven’t slept in a few days.

A little. That’s why I take the Ativan. I can usually go 2-3 days with no sleep before it becomes a problem. Even then, about 2-4 hours is usually all I get in a night. So it doesn’t take much to get me back to “normal.”

I tried Trazodone. I couldn’t sleep on any amount of it. Lunesta usually always works. I have had two Lunesta nights before but I haven’t had one in a long time.

No,I just try to wear my self during the day,so I sleep normally,usually with vivid dreams.Best med for me was Flormidal (midazolam),but is expensive now because drug users tend to abuse it for sleep.It was cheap.

Seroquel 200 mg
Melatonin 6 mg
Trazodone 50 mg as needed
Klonipin 0.5 mg as needed

I take a lot of meds for insomnia because it is a real problem for me. And even with all of these, sometimes I am up all night.

I bounce off the walls on Benadryl. Makes me totally wired.
